Docker & CI/CD Deployment Guidance for globe_runtime (AOT + FFI Use Case)

[kartikey321]

I’m integrating globe_runtime in a production Docker environment
using a Dart AOT-compiled binary (dart compile exe).

The official documentation explains how to install the runtime locally
using:

globe runtime install

or by manually placing the shared library in:

~/.globe/runtime/

However, there is currently no documentation covering:

• How to properly integrate globe_runtime in Docker for CI/CD
• Best practices for multi-stage builds
• Where the shared library should be placed in containers
• Whether LD_LIBRARY_PATH is expected
• Required system dependencies (libstdc++, etc.)
• Whether distroless or Alpine is supported

For AOT-compiled Dart binaries using FFI, the runtime integration
appears to require:

1. Installing globe runtime in a build stage
2. Copying libglobe_runtime.so into a system library path
3. Running ldconfig
4. Ensuring system dependencies are installed

It would be extremely helpful if the documentation could include:

• An official Dockerfile example
• Recommended runtime image base (Debian? Ubuntu?)
• Confirmation of glibc vs musl compatibility
• List of required system libraries

This would significantly reduce friction for production deployments.

Thanks!
